Feb 10 2010Eye Candy: Star Wars Take Over Dubai
This is a picture of part of a Star Wars invasion of Dubai taken by photographer Cédric Delsaux and CG-ified by Pierrick Gueneugue. I posted a couple more after the jump but you really need to go the website and see them all in high-res for full appreciation. And speaking of appreciation: did you know today is Love A Blogger Day? It is, I just invented it. Suck it, Hallmark, you don't have shit on my holiday inventing skills! Pfft, Grandparents' day, don't make me laugh.
Hit the jump for a couple more and another link to the whole gallery.

Thanks to Frank, who once Death Starred in a high school play and did so well people threw roses on stage after his performance.

1- Prequels suck ass. 2- Dubai looks like a complete pit judging by this set of photos...

With just ten minutes spent compositing pop culture references into pictures of building sites with Photoshop you too can cause some thick fucks on the internet post "lol sweet" and "awesome".

@10 - I bet you are one of those autofellating piles of rabid dog shit that walks around talking about how post modern a fucking urinal laying on the ground is.

the second pick with the AT-AT reminds me of the film "The Mist"
14. Olpol - February 11, 2010 1:22 AM
The ATAT is way too big.

The second pic is actually very disturbing to me. Also why is Dubai always under construction?
19. ufff - February 11, 2010 2:38 PM
So apparently Dubai sucks as much as Mr. Gueneugue's CGI skills. First picture has to be a joke, ultralame.

Star wars is a nice film. I hope there another part on the last movie that was shown. Nice photos it’s funny for me because the idea is silly.
